Looking for 2 inch Hitch Ball Mount with Over 10k Capacity Near 3 inch Drop
Updated 11/17/2025 | Published 11/30/2024 >
Question:
Hello, Does anyone make a 10,000 lb plus hitch ball mount for a 2 5/16 ball, 2” shank and 3” drop? Can’t seem to find one. Rather not have an adjustable. Thanks

Hey Kenneth, so the closest option would be 2 inches of drop like the Curt # C45331 which has the ball size you want and has a 15k capacity. While this only has 2 inches of drop with the weight of your trailer's tongue weight on the ball it would most likely drop enough to be correct. It's also not an absolute requirement you get it the exact dimension. As long as you are pretty darn close that's good enough.

Hey Kenneth, how did the Curt heavy-duty ball mount work out with your trailer? Did the 2-inch drop end up giving you the right height once the tongue weight was on it? Your update could make it easier for the next person looking for a similar setup.
